• MongoDB Javadoc

MongoDB is a particular implementation of a technology known as NoSQL databases.

The basic idea is that you can store JSON objects in the cloud.
Everything else is just sort of a riff on that theme.

To get started with MongoDB, I recommend this sequence of articles:

• mongodb_new_database Setting up an account and a new database
• mongodb_spring_boot_basic_collection Setting up a simple collection in a Spring Boot application, i.e. one that has a flat structure of attributes (just one top level object per document, rather than one with nested objects).
• mongodb_spring_boot_nested_collection Setting up a collection in Spring Boot that has nested objects and/or arrays/lists.
